Defects and Limitations

  • The Alpine library is currently excluded from the release package and will be reintroduced in a future release.
  • The JavaScript wrapper is currently excluded from the release package and will be reintroduced in a future release.
  • The Word Search Java wrapper compatibility is currently limited to JRE8.
  • PDFs generated via the MS Outlook Adobe plugin are not supported.
  • Word Search analysis XML no longer reports structural content or changes.
  • Processing times may be impacted by changes made to licensing functionality.
  • Processing files using multiple threads is not supported. Spawning multiple processes is advised in order to facilitate parallel processing.
  • Word Search functionality is provided as Beta:
    • 'text' or 'regex' cannot be the same for 'require' or 'allow'/'disallow' as this will regenerate the file and ignore the 'disallow' or 'require' setting
    • | symbol at the start or end of 'require' can potentially cause the Engine to hang where using regex search policies
